埃夫里迪基酒店·米纳斯·科斯米迪斯

The scope of work of the project has been the interior redesign of the top two floors of the building of Hotel Evridiki. The hotel occupies a 5-storey building and is located in the center of the small town of Kilkis in northern Greece. One family owns both the building and the business of hotel Evridiki and is also responsible for its management since its establishment in the late 70s. According to the client’s brief, our studio begun working on the redesign of the third and fourth floor first (rooms and corridors), which would operate as pilot rooms and in a later stage, both the first two floors of the hotel, as well as the lobby, entrance, restaurant and exterior would be redesigned and remodeled. At the end of the first stage, 22 of a total of 44 rooms have been remodeled, while four of them were connected in order to be transformed into two large suites. 该项目的工作范围是Evridiki酒店大楼顶层两层的室内重新设计。酒店占地5层，位于希腊北部小镇基尔基斯的中心。一个家庭拥有Evridiki酒店的建筑和业务，并自70年代末成立以来负责其管理。根据客户的简介，我们的工作室开始重新设计三楼和四楼（房间和走廊），这将作为试点房间运作，在稍后阶段，酒店的前两层，以及大堂、入口、餐厅和外部都将重新设计和改造。在第一阶段结束时，共有44个房间中的22个已经改造，其中4个已连接起来，以便改造成两个大套房。

The building has been built in the end of the 70s and its main façade overlooks a street which leads on the 21st of June str., which constitutes the central road artery that crosses the town. Furthermore, from the balconies of the front and rear façade of the building, there is an unobstructed view towards the northeastern and southwestern parts of the town respectively. On a floorplan level, the closets, together with all of their functions and the bathrooms have been placed either on one side of the entrance or on each side of it, while the rest of the floorplan has been left free for the bed and the rest of functions. For the two suites, the floor-planning has been a bit more complex. Entering the suite, the living room is found straight ahead, while on each side of the entrance there are two separate closets, which were left open. However, regarding the first closet - placed just after the entrance, there is a sliding mirror which can cover it partially. The rest of the private functions, such as sleeping and bathing were placed on the left side of the floorplan, separated from the living room by a partition wall as well as fixed wooden plank screens. In the bathroom, the washbasins and the shower cabin constitute a continuation of the bedroom while the toilet can be isolated by a separate door. 这座建筑建于70年代末，其主要的法奥莱德俯瞰着一条通往6月21日的街道，它构成了穿过城镇的中央道路动脉。此外，从建筑的正面和后面的阳台上，对城镇的东北部和西南部分都有一个无障碍的景观。在楼层平面上，壁橱连同所有的功能和浴室都放置在入口的一侧或在其每一侧，而楼层平面的其余部分则没有为床和其余的功能留出空间。对于这两个套房来说，楼层规划已经有点复杂了。进入套房，客厅是直的，而在入口的每一侧都有两个独立的壁橱，它们都是敞开的。然而，关于刚刚放置在入口之后的第一壁橱，有一个可以部分覆盖它的滑动镜。其余的私人功能，如睡觉和洗澡都放在平面图的左侧，通过隔墙和固定的木板筛与客厅隔开。在浴室中，洗脸盆和淋浴舱构成卧室的延续，而卫生间可以通过单独的门隔离。

Regarding the aesthetic direction of the redesign and material-wise, the dark brown shades of the walnut wood paneling of the walls complement the beige shades of the oak floor. On some of the rooms’ walls, various types of gray/beige or anthracite geometric wallpaper have been applied, which contribute to the cozy feeling that the architects wanted to introduce in the spaces. At the same time, the wallpaper functions as an interesting background on which, both the headboard on one side of the room and the composition of the television on the opposite side stand out. The hidden illumination behind the wooden panels, which are hanged on the walls covered by wallpaper, gives a sense of detachment of the two surfaces and illuminates the geometric motifs of the embossed wallpaper. Thin, stainless steel blades create a grid between the wooden panels, while blades of the same dimensions have been curved in order to create mirror compositions, television frames, towel hangers and other accessories. The bathrooms are covered with white ceramic tiles with a Carrara marble finish, which “illuminate” the room and constitute the ideal background for the chrome-plated taps and accessories. In the same sense, the benches, coffee and bedside tables in the rooms and especially the suites were made by chrome-plated metal legs and white lacquered surfaces, which also “illuminate” the spaces and provide a sense of brightness. 考虑到重新设计和材料设计的美学方向，墙壁胡桃木镶板的深褐色阴影补充了橡木地板的米色色调。在一些房间的墙壁上，使用了各种类型的灰色/米黄色或无烟煤几何墙纸，这有助于营造建筑师想要在空间中引入的舒适感觉。同时，壁纸的功能是有趣的背景，在这个背景上，一边的床头板和对面的电视机的组成都很突出。挂在壁纸上的木板背后的暗光，给人一种两面的分离感，照亮了浮雕壁纸的几何图案。薄的不锈钢刀片在木板之间形成一个栅格，而同样尺寸的刀片则是弯曲的，以制造镜面组成、电视框、毛巾架和其他附件。浴室覆盖白色瓷砖与卡拉拉大理石完成，这“照明”房间和构成理想的背景镀铬水龙头和配件。在同样的意义上，房间里的长凳、咖啡和床头柜，特别是套房，是由镀铬金属腿和白色漆面制成的，这也“照亮”了空间，提供了一种明亮的感觉。

Moreover, design-wise, the style and aesthetic direction of furniture as well as fixed elements of the hotel rooms and suites are as minimal as possible. The subtractive mood and geometric simplicity of the interior design have accomplished the desirable balance between functional practicality and synthetic vividness of spaces. Finally, a collection of black and white photographs, carefully placed in each space, create a more intellectual and artistic sense in the hotel rooms. 此外，在设计上，家具的风格和审美方向以及酒店客房和套房的固定元素都是尽可能少的。室内设计的减法意境和几何简洁实现了功能实用性与空间综合生动性之间的理想平衡。最后，收集黑白照片，仔细放置在每个空间，创造出更多的知识和艺术的感觉，在酒店的房间。
